Mrs. Brand has sunk into ehasr.
'sYou are very persistent" " she says,
tapping her fingers upon the table near.
''Because / aEa very much ia love"
"And Millicent'"
''I dare 70 hope that she--has found
some room IA her heart for me-"
"Let her speak for herself, Says Mrs

She says nothing Of the secret passages

the world Of relations for his sake.
"Onee you chose ior mel
She pauses Mrs. Brand sighs.
'That choice was nos altogether
happy"
Still Mrs. Brand Is silent.

At this her aunt rouses herself

be a brilliant future before you if''--
AZ shall not give up Gerald" says Mil
lieent, drawing back from her somewhat
coldly. ''You and Uncle Timothy can
leave your money 10 whom you viii;
shall certainly marry Gerald"
+ Niassareene, coming forward, takes her
hand and lifts it TO his lips. There is a
great warmth and giadness in the eaze
he directs at Mrs. Brand.
Perhaps she gives it its value. So true,
so unmercenary love as this IS not 10 be
despised in the money worshiping world
in which she moves.
''Of course, If YOU have quite made Ut

'sYou viii be good 10 her, Geraldf" she
says in low voice.
Massarecne, who is looking grave, re
CARDS her earnestly.

that Is what you mean"
'You give your consent, aunties' csl:
